Perfectionism
Vickie Bhatia
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Perfectionism can often look like a good thing from the outside, but feel like a trap from the inside. Maybe that shows up as the inability to finish something because it's not good enough, maybe it's the exhausting internal critic that never seems to shut up, or maybe it's the fear that resting means falling behind. I help clients loosen perfectionism's grip without losing the drive and standards that matter to them.

Perfectionism
Juliette Grantham
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
I'm Juliette Grantham, a psychoanalytic psychotherapist specializing in perfectionism.
Perfectionism is rarely about wanting to do well. By the time people reach me it has usually become a source of paralysis rather than achievement: work put off because it has to be flawless, projects rewritten past the point of improvement, exhaustion from standards that rise as soon as you meet them, and self-criticism that arrives instantly and stays. The praise, when it comes, does not land.
I work psychoanalytically, which means we take up what perfection has been protecting against. It carries an unconscious logic worth understanding, generally rooted in fear, shame, or a story about what you must be in order to be acceptable. In sessions we follow that story to where it started. As it becomes visible as something learned, it tends to loosen its grip on ordinary tasks.
If perfectionism has begun costing you more than it returns, I would be glad to talk.

Bloom Behavioral Health Ptrs
Treatment Center, Psy'D, LPC, LMSW, CAADC, CCS
Perfectionism can lead to chronic stress, anxiety, burnout, procrastination, and feelings of never being "good enough." Therapy helps individuals identify unhelpful thought patterns, reduce self-criticism, build self-compassion, and develop healthier standards that support success without sacrificing well-being.

Perfectionism
Marina Harris, Bloom Psychology Group
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P, CMPC
Many of my clients have extremely high standards for themselves and base their self-worth on their ability to meet those standards. Usually perfectionism works to a certain point in their life - until it doesn't. On the inside, it can feel like nothing is ever quite good enough, rest feels unearned, and perfectionists can feel like they're one mistake away from a total meltdown. I help high-achievers loosen perfectionism's grip without losing their edge. I help performers work to be ambitious and at peace with themselves. To strive in a healthy way, and still feel like enough.
